Rebecca
...Notre Dame. I received my undergraduate degrees in Computer Science and Theology in 2005 and my MBA in Marketing in 2011. While completing my undergraduate degrees, I was a teaching assistant for the Introduction to Engineering class. I enjoyed working with the students and seeing them master the material over the course of the semester. Professionally, I have worked both as a programmer and as a marketer. I believe my greatest strengths are in teaching...

Richard
...Methodist University. I earned a B.S. and PhD in Computer Engineering from Iowa State, and a MBA from Southern Methodist. I have tutored students for several years. I have tutored students in Math (mainly Algebra I, II and III; Pre-Calculus; Trigonometry; Calculus I, II and III), Statistics, and Computer Science. I like tutoring Math. Math is usually the reason people are afraid to choose majors and avoid taking some classes. The look on a student's...

...material we will review together, but you will feel comfortable with it as well. I am a tutor that will adapt to your learning style to best help you succeed in any class or with any test material. Having taken my years of education seriously, I can also teach test taking strategies that will help you optimize your scores. During all of our sessions, I will attempt to make the material as fun as possible...

Shivam
...at it since elementary school. I'm doing a minor in mathematics at college because I enjoy the subject so much. I try to make sure my students walk away with something from each session. I hold myself to high standards which constantly allows me to grow as a tutor. I am excited to hear from you and help you achieve whatever goals you may have! If you feel I'm the right tutor for you, don't...

Rajiv
...Certainly, sometimes they need a helping hand, and other times they need to be in an environment like tutoring where they are allowed to be wrong without penalty. Failure is a vital step of learning. Outside of tutoring, I play a variety of sports, though tennis is the only one I pursue on a competitive, advanced level. I am also a father, an aspiring screenwriter, and a jack-of-all trades type of person. My days are...

Matt
...examples. I take this same approach when tutoring, instilling self-confidence in students to help them succeed in mastering each new challenge presented. I frequently encourage them to come up with a rough estimate of the answer before delving into formulas and calculations, instructing them to think about the problem in a logical manner first. With an easy-going style, I strive to make students relaxed and comfortable, allowing them to better concentrate on the task at...

Stephen
...enjoy helping students with standardized test strategy and following their scores as they increase towards their goal. When I tutor, I aim to lead students to an answer by example so that they can see the reasoning involved themselves, rather than me just telling them the answer. The more the students can come to their own solutions, the more memorable the lessons will be. In my spare time I enjoy reading, playing skill games like...

Joseph
...with a bachelors in biomedical engineering and a minor in CS. My future plans involve graduate school for computer science and eventually medical school. I believe that anyone can develop and maintain a high standard of learning and with enough hard work and determination to achieve his or her academic goals. Unfortunately, many classrooms seem to fall short of actively engaging and inspiring students to take initiative in their academic careers. I strive to bring...

...to and including calculus 4 and physical chemistry). In fact, I sometimes reads books from the library about math and science just for fun. I'd like to instill a fascination with these subjects into my students, and help them to see how what they're learning can be both interesting and important. Here is an example from biology. What causes genetic defects, and can they be prevented (or minimized)? What really counts as a genetic defect?...

Michael
...and received a Bachelor's Degree in Mathematics and Secondary Education. I also minored in Computer Science. Through my student teaching experience and teaching experience so far, I have learned the importance of building connections between my students’ prior knowledge and their introduction to new concepts. I also now understand the importance of asking challenging questions that push my students to explain their mathematical reasoning in order to help them gain a deeper conceptual understanding. I...
